The Ice Haus at Jay Peak was a new construction with specific water and power issues caused by its placement at the base of a ski hill. On peak ski days the lifts consumed much of the incoming power to the hill so any design required a low surge on start. Water was also an issue because wells served the property and water consumption was massive for the ski hills and hotels. Energy efficient HVAC and dehumidification designs were also a key component of this project.
In addition, discussions were in place for a future water park to be constructed 700 feet from the facility and the possibility of reclaiming waste heat for the pools was a consideration in the overall design.
The system worked as intended and provided reclaimed heat for multiple purposes, including the (now 
installed) water park. The modular design allowed for staged starting of ice3 Cubes so that in rush power was kept to a minimum. A majority of all ice shavings are reclaimed to allow for an efficient use of the water. It is estimated that 5,000 gallons of water are reclaimed in the winter and almost 7500 gallons in the summer.
The water park was constructed and warm thermal energy was recaptured from the refrigeration plant. At first only a few outdoor pools and some wading pools were heated. Once it was clear that a majority of the reclaim heat was still available, the heat reclamation was increased at the water park. This remote facility has become an extremely busy Ice Arena and the ice3 Cube System has been a great fit with minimal maintenance and built-in redundancy.
We specialize in highly efficient refrigeration plant replacements with total heat and geothermal reclamation, an asset waiting to be harnessed.
